Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2357

Some of them even ridiculed him by saying, “You can always beg us for our help. If we deem that you're pitiful enough, perhaps we'll even betray Daisy and side with you again.”

Hearing this, Zeke glanced at the person speaking and asked, “And you are?”

“Dane Hoffman.”

“Good. I've remembered your name now. Mark my words. Your family will be destroyed, and some will even lose their lives.”

“Oh, spooky. I'm scared.” Dane put on a scornful expression.

One of the suppliers added, “Why are you afraid of him? He's just a puny insect on the verge of dying!”

Dane replied, “I'm just afraid that his bragging would drag us into eternal damnation along with him!”

Everyone burst into laughter immediately.

“You know, when you scolded me, you're already on your way to eternal damnation!” Zeke smiled. “Ladies and gentlemen, you may leave now and return tomorrow afternoon. I assure you you'll receive your compensation in full. Of course, it will depend greatly on your capabilities if you can accept the payment in full.”

Everyone roared with laughter again. “If you can present us the money, we will be able to take them all!”

“Hmph, you have only a day to prepare the cash. Don't blame us for resorting to violence if you can't present the money tomorrow.”

“Hey, Mr. Williams, why are you still struggling? Don't you realize that it's too late now? The fate of Linton Group will be the same no matter how hard you struggle!”

“What a stubborn idiot. He will probably only drop his stiff-necked pride upon the harsh truth.”

The suppliers commented continuously as they left.

Zeke turned toward Daisy. “Is there anything else? If not, please leave. Foreigners are not welcomed here.”

Hearing this, Daisy sighed. “I've planned to take over Linton Group today, but you're a tough nut to crack, aren't you? Why do you persist? Fine. I'll give you just one more day to make up your mind. Now, let me ask you. Is asking Redwood Capital for help your final way out of this situation?”

“That's right,” Zeke replied.

“Did you not hear me just now? The head of the investment department of Redwood Capital is an associate of mine. Even if you managed to talk some sense into him, I could still easily change his decision.” Daisy stood up from the couch. “I suggest you give up as quickly as possible. The sooner you realize this, the better it will be for you.”

After the lady left, Lacey turned toward Zeke, looking worried. “Zeke, what are you going to do now?”

Zeke stroked Lacey's silky smooth hair and said, “I'm going to reclaim the glory of Linton Group, of course.”

“Are you really going to ask Redwood Capital for help?”

Zeke nodded.

Lacey looked disappointed. “But Daisy made it clear that the head of the investment department of Redwood Capital is one of her associates! She could easily change Redwood Capital's investment plans! Besides, with almost everyone resigned, what is left of Linton Group is just its cover. Even if Daisy doesn't stir up more trouble, there's no way Redwood Capital will invest in our company!”

Zeke patted Lacey on her shoulder in reply. “Lacey, don't worry about it. Everything will be fine as long as I'm around.”

Lacey stared right back at Zeke as she wondered where he found that confidence from.

Yet, little did she know that the Redwood Capital was yet another asset belonging to Zeke.

Instead of making money, Redwood Capital was founded by Zeke back then to help the people in the nation.

As for Linton Group, it was a national enterprise that was on its way to becoming one of the top five hundred companies in the world. Hence, if they allowed Linton Group to crumble just like that, not only Redwood Capital would be at a loss but also Eurasia.

Hence, Redwood Capital had to help Linton Group no matter what.

“That's enough. Stop being so negative, Lacey. I miss Nelly, so let's go home. I want to see her.”

At the thought of Nelly, Lacey became less frustrated.

After all, so what if Linton Group went into bankruptcy? The well-being of her family was of the utmost importance.
